Ars Technica reports:



Hyundai Motor Company's plan to put humanoid robots to work by 2028 is not part of current negotiations with striking South Korean autoworkers, according to the company.

The automaker is disputing news reports that partial labor strikes by the Hyundai Motor union at the world's largest automotive plant in South Korea were spurred by concerns about the company's planned deployment of humanoid robots in the United States starting in 2028. [The planned robots are built by Boston Dynamics, now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hyundai.] A Hyundai statement shared with Ars describes the union's demands as focusing on compensation-related issues such as wage increases, bonuses, and an extension of workers' retirement age. "Potential deployment of robots in Korean production facilities is not part of the current labor-management discussions," according to the Hyundai statement...

Hyundai emphasized that its current plan only covers the initial deployment of the Atlas humanoid robot at Metaplant America, an electric vehicle factory near Savannah, Georgia, starting in 2028. "Decisions about future Atlas deployment at other facilities will be made thoughtfully, in accordance with local operational needs, and in dialogue with the employees and workforce representatives at those sites," the company stated. However, The Wall Street Journal described the Hyundai Motor union as making "unprecedented demands seeking to enshrine job protections in the era of robots and AI," and characterized certain compensation demands as hedging against potential reductions in work hours caused by AI adoption and robotic automation. "Remember that without labor-management agreement, not a single robot using new technology will be allowed to enter the workplace," the union told Hyundai in an internal letter reported by Reuters.

Hyundai management and the labor union are currently reviewing a proposed wage reform that would "provide factory workers with greater income stability even after the carmaker's planned deployment of humanoid robots," The Korea Times reported. But experts cautioned that the wage overhaul, which would convert hourly pay for overtime and night-shift allowances into fixed wages, could come at the expense of company productivity.

CNBC reports:


Amazon is requiring that third-party sellers label any product images or videos that contain "AI-generated people" after New York recently passed a law mandating greater transparency around "synthetic performers" in ads... The policy directs sellers to tag images [and videos or other graphics on listing pages] with specific metadata keywords before they're uploaded. "Recent legislation requires disclosure when images or videos in advertisements contain photorealistic AI-generated people," Amazon wrote in the announcement [clarifying that the requirement doesn't apply to content featuring TV/video game/movie characters or content including real people, even if they've been altered using AI]. The company said it will "add an indicator" to listings on its website, informing consumers that images or other content feature AI-generated people, "where applicable." It's unclear what criteria Amazon will apply when deciding when to display the label to shoppers...

Amazon has embraced AI internally and it's increasingly infusing the technology across its portfolio. The company has optimized listing titles and details so they're more likely to be spotted by AI systems, invested in a recently rebranded assistant called Alexa for Shopping, and launched a feature that injects AI-generated [images of] products into its search bar in real time based on user queries. More Amazon third-party sellers are using AI to generate text, images and other content for their listings, partly by using the company's tools.

Outside sellers account for more than 60% of goods sold on Amazon, the article points out. It adds that there's currently no nationwide U.S. law requiring companies to disclose AI-generated advertising content, it adds — but YouTube, Meta, Pinterest, and TikTok have already added labels for AI-generated content.

And a new California law also requires large AI providers to embed watermarks in AI-generated images, video and other content...

For those who have Apple devices (at least) and use the flickr app, yesterday afternoon came as something of a surprise to see it rolled back to what it was before the latest troublesome update. Here is a copy of the reply after I thanked them for acting. We will still get a new app sometime, hopefully with all the feedback it will function much better. I have copied that feedback I got via the flickr help page and email below.

In the meantime, this is a shot into the winter sun of one of South East Queensland's most photographed trees - the Brighton Tree at low tide on the Pine River estuary with the 2.7 kilometre dual Houghton Highway and Ted Smout Memorial Bridges on right linking Brisbane and Redcliffe. The tree is situated in the suburb of Brighton.


"Thank you for your patience and feedback about the recent app update.

We heard you loud and clear, and we've made the decision to roll back the iOS app to the previous version while we address the issues you've been experiencing. You should see this rollback reflected in the App Store within the next 24 hours, likely much sooner.. If your app doesn’t update automatically, try checking for updates in the App Store.

This doesn't change our plans. We're still making a significant investment in the Flickr app, something that's been overdue for a long time. We just want to make sure the next version we ship is one you can rely on, rather than pushing forward with a release that's causing more frustration than value. Expect more updates from us as we get this right".

Thanks again for bearing with us, and for being part of the Flickr community.

Sitting here with a young friend, we watch the platypus swim across the pool appearing like a young crocodile, with the crown of its head out of the water, and its bill skimming the surface. Then we watch a rakali playing in the rocky pool beside us, as if it is checking us out, then luring our attentiion by disappearing into a watery hiding place between rocks, then cheekily reappearing again. These two aquatic animals are the only two aquatic mammals we have on the Australia continent, but both inhabit this pool together.

De Pride in Berlijn is stilgelegd, nadat een witte auto meerdere mensen aanreed in stadspark Tiergarten. De politie is op zoek naar de bestuurder en mogelijke andere verdachten. Burgemeester Kai Wegner spreekt van "een aanval op onze vrije en open samenleving".

• Ramsay-Peaty finishes third in 100m breaststroke

• ‘People who comment … you don’t know who I am’

Adam Ramsay-Peaty has never been someone to mask his feelings. But defeat has never sounded as emotional or as raw as this. There were tears. Frustrations. Questions about why he kept putting himself through the 5.30am starts at the age of 31.

And then came the crescendo in the form of a blistering attack on his critics on social media and the media. “You can’t hurt me,” he said, before telling them to “do better”. It was dramatic. It was powerful. And it was certainly heartfelt.

BERLIJN (ANP) - De vermoedelijke aanrijding tijdens de Pride in Berlijn heeft aan zeker één persoon het leven gekost. Ongeveer vijftien personen raakten gewond, meldt de politie volgens persbureau AFP. Er zou met een voertuig zijn ingereden op mensen.

Wij onderbreken het Stamcafé omdat in Berlijn vermoedelijk een auto op een mensenmenigte is ingereden tijdens Christopher Street Day, de Duitse benaming van Pride. Rond tien uur vanavond zou een wit transportbusje met hoge snelheid zijn ingereden op een mensenmenigte zijn ingereden in Tiergarten, het grootste park van Berlijn. Getuigen zeggen tegen Bild dat er iemand uit de bus zou zijn gestapt die te voet is gevlucht. Er zijn meerdere gewonden. Later meer.
UPDATE 23u28 - Hier beelden van een arrestatie. Zou dader kunnen zijn, maar ook goed mogelijk dat het iemand anders is, politie is uiteraard met man en macht op zoek
UPDATE 23u35 - Politie bevestigt 1 dode
UPDATE 23u39 - Aantal gewonden nu op 14, waarvan enkele ernstig
UPDATE 23u43 - Nieuwe vid van politie hierboven, met door Grok vertaalde tekst: "Kort voor 22 uur zou de bestuurder van een wit voertuig op de Ahornsteig in het grote #Tiergarten meerdere personen hebben aangereden. Er zijn talrijke gewonden, onder wie meerdere levensgevaarlijk gewonden. De zoektocht naar een of meer verdachten verloopt met hoge druk. Verdere informatie volgt." In de video spreekt de woordvoerder ook over reanimaties. Dat klinkt: niet goed.
UPDATE 23u56 - Bronnen van Bild melden dat de dader een steekwapen bij zich gehad zou hebben en daarmee mensen aan heeft gevallen voor hij op de vlucht ging
UPDATE 23u59 - Overigens is de verdachte (zal je altijd zien) een man
UPDATE 0u03 - Burgemeester Berlijn spreekt van een "aanval op onze vrije en open samenleving"
